About the grant program
Our goal for the CDIP grant is to strengthen neighbourhood cohesion and stability.
We offer grants of up to $10,000 for one-time seed funding of community development projects. The project must be self-sustaining or completed by the time the grant runs out. Applicants are encouraged to look for equity contributions and partnerships.
The grant intake for 2026 is now closed, as all funds have been allocated.
Eligible groups
You are eligible to apply for the CDIP grant if your group falls into one of these categories:
- neighbourhood association
- community of interest
A community of interest is a group that has identified common concerns that impact a geographic area of the city.
To be eligible for the CDIP grant, your group must have an organizational structure in place to initiate and follow through on projects and account for finances.
